Book Reviews of You're in Charge, Now What?: The 8 Point Plan

Book Review: Get a leg up on the competition
Summary: 4 Stars

An executive how-to kit for the first 100 days suitable for both small and large businesses - a hard nut to crack. Thomas Neff and James Citrin offer a seven-step action plan for any new executive: do your homework, align expectations, build a management team, develop a strategy, explore and define the culture, find the source of power and set a vision for the company. Few other reviewers have claimed these to be `self-evident' and motherhood and pie, but the examples provided by the authors are well worth the time on their own. The book may not revolutionize your thinking, but it has certainly helped me identify a few underwater stones - experience is cheapest second hand, do not overlook this book.

Summary of You're in Charge, Now What?: The 8 Point Plan

When you start a new job, you are in a "temporary state of incompetence," faced with having to do the most when you know the least. Tom Neff and Jim Citrin, two of the world's experts on leadership and career achievement, know what it takes to succeed in a new position. Through compelling, first-hand stories, from CEOs like Jeffrey Immelt of GE and Bob Eckert of Mattel, You're in Charge-Now What? offers an eight-point plan to show you how to lay the groundwork for long-term momentum and great performance.
